4 hour BEOB, let's see how it turns out.
Something tells me we're going to trade the news before they get released. (Like USDCAD)

Looks like the bulls are showing their strength in the early hrs of the London session. Now retraced to the eye level of the bar prior to BEOB.

any one like the look of this, sorry about the lack of info on the chart but my trading platform doesnt have all the cool stuff mt4 does, and they dont seem to have cotton, I traded the first pin succesfully it was my first J16 trade, love how easy it makes trade management when you know why you got in and where and what to look for on the way

also traded the 3rd touch of 83 with a BEOB on the 4 hour

short on the break of the secong pin

That's a good sign that Price is respecting the BEOB, but the size is troubling to cause a significant reversal. This is almost a touch trade at a good location with the BEOB as confirmation. I'm not the best at touch trading . . .lol . . . so a bigger BEOB or PB would have been better.

Looks good Trndsurfer. The best ones are always easy to manage.

Looks like the news will do enough damage to bring price up to the high of BEOB. I am about to lose a seemingly good setup.

What did we learn from this . . (Mike comes to mind) . . . Big bars at Great locations. Great location . . . little bar. . . no trade.

If that was a sizable BEOB, I would put it to you that the News would have meant nothing.

Just some thoughts.

well, I definitely thought the size was decent, closed reasonably well below the low of the prior bar. Maybe I need to re-program myself to learn what is considered sizable by you guys' benchmark.
Thanks for the comments though

The close is good as it relates to the previous bar, also how many bars it engulfs is a good factor as well. Although swing high (BEOBs) won't engulf too many.

Heres a nice sizable BEOB on the same pair. Moving to B/E held up for a good amount of pips, better at the previous bar low or above the 1.7000.

nasir,
perhaps the wedge was not that steep.
Great job, still.
(btw, in other brokers, i believe the candle has not closed yet, so u may get a 'replica' of your drawing, lol)
